Yeah its a bit disappointing, though I was expecting it. I think its the only game I ever played on Impulse and TBH I never much cared for the Gamestop stuff.

Hmm, I did that and my game crashed whenever I ran it again. Also before I did that, I tried running DA first, it claimed its install was corrupt. So, I think whats happened is something within DA was corrupted which caused TA to spazz out a bit. Doing a full re-install of all of them, hopefuly that will fix it. If it all goes well I'll be back to working on the mod by tonight. Not sure how I can explain the lack of Klingon/Romulan cloaking

A few basic tweaks to RaceConfig.xml in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Ok so, I decided to have a it of fun changing the races over to star trek stuff. I'm not talking major ship-replacing conversion, just tweaking the raceconfig so make things appear more trekkie. Anyway, I made my first change as a test, changed the colour of the terran interface, changed the race decription and also the race leaders picture. I enable mods and select my folder then restart the game. It worked, the 3 things I changed had all applied
